Keywords: harddisk BAD optimizer Message-ID: <472@tw-rnd.SanDiego.NCR.COM> Date: 8 Aug 89 01:33:49 GMT Organization: NCR Distributed Systems Laboratory Lines: 13 I've heard several complaints from different postings lately about using B.A.D. (a commercial disk optimizer) on hard drive partitions. I have a Quantum 80S interfaced to my A1000 via a Supra interface. I haven't run B.A.D. yet but plan to eventually. Is it possible for B.A.D. to corrupt my disk or is the problem just "it doesn't work"? I bought it for use with my floppies mainly but having a harddrive now I plan to use it. Please advise. PS I mailed ls 3.1 to anyone who asked but many bounced. I posted it here since it was fairly small - I hope it is acceptable. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Above opinions are my own, not my employer's" John Lindwall johnl@tw-rnd.SanDiego.NCR.COM
